Euromillions: Half-Month ‘Birthday Numbers’

[Ion Saliu]

Yes, this is another lottery strategy. It is derived from the traditional ‘birthday number’ strategy: all lottery numbers drawn are between 1 and 31.

The half-month is 31/2 = 15.5, rounded up t0 16.

This strategy does occur in just about every lotto game, albeit not as frequently as the Doollows of the world love.

It just happened in the Euromillions draw of Ginuary 25, 2019:

• 1 6 13 15 16, 6 10


The odds calculated as EXACTLY in a Euro Millions game
'5/16 AND 2/12':

~ 0 of 5 in 5 from 16 AND 0 of 2 in 2 from 12: 1 in 13.87
~ 0 of 5 in 5 from 16 AND 1 of 2 in 2 from 12: 1 in 31.2
~ 0 of 5 in 5 from 16 AND 2 of 2 in 2 from 12: 1 in 624
~ 1 of 5 in 5 from 16 AND 0 of 2 in 2 from 12: 1 in 3.88
~ 1 of 5 in 5 from 16 AND 1 of 2 in 2 from 12: 1 in 8.74
~ 1 of 5 in 5 from 16 AND 2 of 2 in 2 from 12: 1 in 174.72
~ 2 of 5 in 5 from 16 AND 0 of 2 in 2 from 12: 1 in 3.88
~ 2 of 5 in 5 from 16 AND 1 of 2 in 2 from 12: 1 in 8.74
~ 2 of 5 in 5 from 16 AND 2 of 2 in 2 from 12: 1 in 174.72
~ 3 of 5 in 5 from 16 AND 0 of 2 in 2 from 12: 1 in 11.65
~ 3 of 5 in 5 from 16 AND 1 of 2 in 2 from 12: 1 in 26.21
~ 3 of 5 in 5 from 16 AND 2 of 2 in 2 from 12: 1 in 524.16
~ 4 of 5 in 5 from 16 AND 0 of 2 in 2 from 12: 1 in 116.48
~ 4 of 5 in 5 from 16 AND 1 of 2 in 2 from 12: 1 in 262.08
~ 4 of 5 in 5 from 16 AND 2 of 2 in 2 from 12: 1 in 5241.6
~ 5 of 5 in 5 from 16 AND 0 of 2 in 2 from 12: 1 in 6406.4
~ 5 of 5 in 5 from 16 AND 1 of 2 in 2 from 12: 1 in 14414.4
~ 5 of 5 in 5 from 16 AND 2 of 2 in 2 from 12: 1 in 288,288

Keep also in mind the important parameter of lotto decades. The ‘half-month birthday numbers’ come from 2 decades only, but not all of them from one decade.

Best of luck, axios!

You can get lost easily in public forums like this Usenet group. THERE ARE WAY TOO MANY POSTS!!! The overwhelming proportion of such “scribbles” are nothing more or above garbage, nonsense, one-liner bullshitting, fights, controversies… or a few cryptic numbers meant to “beat” the lottery!

To solve the problem, I created a thread referring to the most relevant articles, materials, debates, systems, fights, etc. I keep it updated and make sure it shows at the top of this Google group:

• There is a new useful feature for reading the Usenet posts in Google Groups. The vast majority of newsgroup members use GROUPS.GOOGLE.COM to post and read on the Internet pioneering service, Usenet.

One drawback of the Google service, very useful otherwise, is the default font. It is a proportional font (of variable-width, that is). However, initially Usenet was written and shown in a monospace font.

Many of the statistical reports I posted did not show up in an acceptable format. The original format was in the typewriter format 9the Courier font). I shall inventory the most important posts in this newsgroup and refer the readers to this important thread. Viewing will be better off overall.

It is quite easy and simple to add this useful feature to two of your browsers: Chrome and Firefox. Just read this axiomatic thread:
